Vienna - Business Tips

Vienna Business Etiquette

Vienna Dress Code
Business attire consists of suits for both men and women. Outside business hours, Austrians are generally casual dressers, although a jacket and tie are usually worn to exclusive restaurants and smart clothing is definitely the norm for a night out to the theatre or opera.

Greeting Someone in Vienna
People should be addressed by their title, along with a handshake. It is usual to take a small gift if you are invited to a colleague's house, such as a bottle of wine or box of chocolates.

Vienna Business Hours and Banking
Business hours in Vienna are 08:00 to 12:30 and 13:30 to 17:30 Monday to Friday. Banks are open between 09:30 and 16:00 Monday to Friday, with some larger branches open on Saturday morning.

Vienna Smoking
Smokers are advised to be very careful when choosing a place to light up as some public places have banned smoking altogether. The best advice is to smoke only in like-minded company.
